I think it may depend on what kind of music you listen to. Based my my experience with WP 6s I owned for a year or so, the soundstage is very engaging. The low end is spectacular and very satisfying: detailed and not boomy, clear and not opaque; the bass attaches itself the the instrument producing it; it's not just an amorphous bass cloud. (In fact the Puppy bass is about state of the art to my ears.) But if you listen to a lot of vocals, especially popular music, make sure you audition first.
The vocals (REM, Beatles, Karen Carpenter) were mechanical and grating in my system (Pass X350 amp and Accuphase DP75V). This was not the case with former Aerial 10Ts in the same system.
(Von Schweikert vocals and mids/highs in general are also smooth and excellent in tonality, and a switch to Wilson might be a shock if you are coming from th VSR sound.)
Classical music was very good though, with a little buzziness on a piano notes on just a few CDs.
